Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds fresh large poblano chiles
1 onion, quartered, cut crosswise into 1/4" slices
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons dried oregano, preferably Mexican
3/4 cup crème fraiîhe or sour cream
1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack
Kosher salt
Ingredient info: Fresh poblano chiles are available at specialty foods stores, Latin markets, and some supermarkets.

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler, build a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to high. If broiling, place chiles on a rimmed baking sheet. If grilling, put chiles directly on grill grate. Roast, turning occasionally, until tender and nicely charred all over, 15-20 minutes.
  • Transfer chiles to a large bowl; cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 15 minutes. Peel chiles. Halve lengthwise; discard seeds. Cut crosswise into 1/4" strips.
  • Heat a large dry heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook, stirring often, until beginning to char, 6-7 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add oregano and 1 cup water; simmer until onion is tender and water has evaporated, 5-7 minutes.
  • Add chiles; cook until flavors meld, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in crème fraiîhe and cheese. Add water by tablespoonfuls if mixture is too dry. Season to taste with salt.

This recipe was way too spicy for me. I could barely eat it.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I think I may have used the wrong type of poblano peppers.

This recipe is a great starting point for creating your own variations. I added some corn and black beans to mine and it was delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of poblano peppers, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the peppers were cooked just right.

The sauce was a little too spicy for me, but I just added a little sour cream and it was perfect.
